UK based e-reader - questions from a newbie

Hi
I am starting to get to grips with a few things (such as actually reading) but there are other things that completely blow my mind. As a very very newbie I would be grateful if those in the know could clear a few things up for me.

For my first downloaded book from the WH Smith Website I was told I needed to downloade Adobe Digital Editions in order to successfully complete the process, which I did.

Upon purchase of my Sony prs-600 in order to access the free 100 books which I was entitled to upon registration, it was necessary for me to download the Sony Reader Library software - which I did. However I now find out that I am unable to get books from the Sony store due to being outside the USA.

When exploring this forum, I discovered Calibre, which I understand can do all sorts of marvellous things (have not explored it very far as yet) so have also downloaded that.

So my first question is - Do I really need the Sony Reader library at all if I can't use it to download books from Sony Store and can I do all my organising through calibre?

And I suppose my second is, will I need to download new software for access books from various sites, or does it depend on the format of the book?
thanks
